FIG. 1 illustrates an online store system according to some example embodiments.

Referring to FIG. 1, an online store system 1 may include an electronic apparatus 10, a user terminal 20, and a seller terminal 30. FIG. 1 shows components related to the online store system 1 of the present embodiment. Accordingly, it would be understood by those skilled in the art that general-purpose components other than the components shown in FIG. 1 may be further included.

The electronic apparatus 10, the user terminal 20, and the seller terminal 30 may communicate with one another within a network. The network may include any one or combinations of a local area network (LAN), a wide area network (WAN), a value added network (VAN), a mobile radio communication network, and a satellite communications network. Also, the network is a comprehensive data communication network that allows network components to smoothly communicate with each other, and may include a wired Internet, a wireless Internet, and a mobile wireless communication network. The wireless communication may be, for example, wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) LAN, Bluetooth™, Bluetooth low energy, ZigBee, Wi-Fi direct (WFD), ultra wideband (UWB), infrared Data Association (IrDA) communication, and near field communication (NFC) but not is limited thereto.

The electronic apparatus 10 may operate the online store system 1. Specifically, a seller may transmit information on or regarding a sale product to the electronic apparatus 10 through the seller terminal 30. The electronic apparatus 10 may generate a product-related page based on the information on the sale product and provide the product-related page to the user terminal 20. By accessing an online store through the user terminal 20, a user may identify products available for purchase on the online store, which are provided by the electronic apparatus 10. The user may select some products and proceed with the purchase.

When the user searches for a specific product or requests detailed information on the specific product through the user terminal 20, the electronic apparatus 10 may verify whether the corresponding product is a product belonging to a first category. Here, the first category may refer to a category for which brand information such as logo content is provided. Also, the first category may be a category that customer's preferences for some brands are relatively large. The first category may be, for example, clothing/accessories but is not limited thereto.

When the corresponding product belongs to the first category, the electronic apparatus 10 may verify whether the corresponding product is a product of a specific brand based on product information received from the seller terminal 30. When the corresponding product is the product of the specific brand, the electronic apparatus 10 may provide brand information including identified logo content to the user terminal 20.

The electronic apparatus 10 may provide a platform for the online store. Specifically, the electronic apparatus 10 may provide an application for using the online store to the user terminal 20. The electronic apparatus 10 may execute the application and purchase a product. In addition, the electronic apparatus 10 may provide an application for uploading product information to the seller terminal 30. Also, instead of providing a separate application for the seller terminal 30, the electronic apparatus 10 may provide a function for the seller to upload product information on the platform for the online store. For example, the electronic apparatus 10 may be included in a server that operates the online store.

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a product detail page according to some example embodiments.

A product detail page may be, for example, a single detail page (SDP). Referring to FIG. 2, a single detail page 210 may include a first area 220 in which an image of a product is displayed, a second area 230 in which brand information of the product is displayed, and a third area 240 in which product information is displayed. The brand information of the product displayed in the second area 230 may include logo content of the corresponding brand, a brand name 232, and a link 233 of a page introducing a product of the corresponding brand. The product information displayed in the third area 240 may include a product name 241, a product price, and review information of the product.

Meanwhile, in FIG. 2, the image of the product displayed in the first area 220 and the product name and price information displayed in the third area 240 may be provided based on product information received from a seller terminal. In contrast, the brand name 232 and the logo content 231 of the second area may be retrieved by an electronic apparatus based on the product information received from the seller terminal.

If the brand name is included in the product name among the product information received from the seller terminal, the electronic apparatus may exclude the brand name in the product name and provide remaining information of the product name to the user terminal. For example, when the product name 241 of the product information received from the seller terminal is “A-brand white sneakers AA-XXX,” if “A-brand white sneakers AA-XXX” is displayed without a change, information on or regarding the brand name 232 of the second area 230 may be displayed with being duplicated. In this case, remaining information “white sneakers AA-XXX” obtained by excluding “A-brand” from “A-brand white sneakers AA-XXX” may be provided to the user terminal. As such, the method of the present disclosure may prevent the same information from being duplicated.

In addition, even when the brand information included in the product name 241 of the product information received from the seller terminal and the brand name 232 displayed in the second area 230 are provided in different languages, the electronic apparatus may exclude the brand name from the product name and then provide the remaining information of the product name to the user terminal. For example, even when the product name 241 among the product information received from the seller terminal is “A-brand while sneakers AA-XXX,” the remaining information “while sneakers AA-XXX” obtained by excluding “A-brand” may be provided to the user terminal.

In some example embodiments, when the electronic apparatus displays brand information in the second area 230 only for a genuine product, the user may easily verify from the second area 230 that the corresponding product is authorized by the brand.

Further, the method of the present disclosure may generate a new image by recognizing logo content from an image of a product displayed in the first area 220 and cropping one area including the recognized logo content. The generated image may be displayed in the first area 220. Referring to FIG. 2, the method of the present disclosure may recognize one area 225 including a logo of A-brand from an image related to a shoe product, and then generate the one area 225 into a new image. Also, in response to a sliding input being applied to the first area 220, the generated image may be displayed.

FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a product search page according to some example embodiments.

A product search page may be, for example, a search result page (SRP). Referring to FIG. 3, a search result page 300 may include a search word enter area 310, a fourth area 320 in which a keyword related to a search word is displayed, and a fifth area in which a product search result is displayed. The fifth area may include a left portion 340 and a right portion 350. Also, the search result page 300 may further include a button 330 to provide a function of filtering the product search result.

For example, when “A-brand shoes” is input to the search word enter area 310, the electronic apparatus may display keywords (new women's product, women, women's running shoes, men's running shoes, etc.) related to shoes in the fourth area 320.

Meanwhile, as a search result of the A-brand shoes, a first product and a second product may be found. In this case, based on brand identification results of the first product and the second product, information on the products may be differently displayed. For example, in a case of the first product for which brand identification is not completed, information on the first product may be displayed as shown in the left portion 340 of the fifth area. Also, in a case of the second product for which brand identification is completed, information on the second product may be displayed as shown in the right portion 350 of the fifth area. Specifically, the right portion 350 of the fifth area may include a brand information display area 351 of the second product. The brand information display area 351 of the second product may include a brand name and logo content of the corresponding brand. In addition, a brand shop page link (“>” of the brand information display area 351) composed of information on a product for which brand identification is completed may be further included. Here, a brand identification procedure may refer to a procedure for performing a determination whether a seller is an official seller who sells products of a specific brand based on information received from the seller.

Meanwhile, the configurations of the product-related pages of FIGS. 2 and 3 are merely an example, and it is apparent for those skilled in the art that the configuration may vary based on implementation of a user interface.
